Australian utility Origin Energy yesterday (30 October) confirmed it had started construction on the second phase of its 2.1GWh Eraring battery energy storage system (BESS) in New South Wales, Australia.
Technology provider and system integrator Wärtsilä has been selected to provide its Quantum High Energy storage technology for a 300MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in South Australia.
While there is much more variety in the BESS supply landscape today, there are relatively few suppliers able to offer products for ‘grid-forming, enduring infrastructure assets’, developer and operator Dais Energy’s CEO said.
Would-be battery manufacturers that could serve the US energy storage industry with domestically made cells are facing a “perfect storm,” Energy-Storage.news has heard.
System integrator Wärtsilä has launched its newest energy management system (EMS) platform, while power solutions manufacturer Generac has acquired a company that makes them.
We hear from industry sources about the reasons for, and implications of, the increasing convergence to the 20-foot, 5MWh+ container as the dominant grid-scale BESS product today.
System integrator Wärtsilä will provide the state-owned utility on the Carribean island of Curaҫao with a battery energy storage system (BESS) of 25MW/25MWh.
The first quarter of 2024 saw declines in US utility-scale energy storage deployments and revenues for US-based or focused system integrators, but the long-term pipeline and outlook remains healthy.
